Trade Like a Hedge Fund: 20 Successful Uncorrelated Strategies & Techniques to Winning Profits

Used to be a good book but is almost absolete now

Most of the strategies you learn in this book are not profitable anymore. Sometimes, I think Altucher rushed to finish this book and was bored writing. I do not think there is any value left to learn from this book. But you can read it if you find it in a public library. Some chapters are fun. Otherwise, I would recommend Altucher's blog but it is not about trading anymore.

There will never be a book that shows you the HOW

I hate to come firing out of the gate and say this book sucked, but in all honesty it really didn't teach me much of anything. There are tiny fragments throughout the book that you may find somewhat interesting but overall it just seemed boring and somewhat erratic.

Jame Altucher is the geeky guy know for his earlier work at thestreet.com and this book reflects what happened when brilliant people have too much IQ for their own good.

I wouldn't recommend spending your time or money on this, but if you want to thumb through it at the bookstore have a ball.

Hedge Funds don't Sell Techniques

This book was a waste of money. It didn't give you any lasting education or strategies that you could really implement. It really just gave you some backtested ideas that worked at some point in the past decade. The title is the only thing in this book that is of value as it tricked me into buying the book.
